Visited today with Cavewheel, Muffin, and Duck, as well as Hypo boy (+1) and Diesel Drinker, who we met for the first time; cheers for a great explore fellas.
Upwood is a massive site and I could easily post individual reports for each of the parts: The tanks, the towers, the accommodation blocks, Decontamination Centres, etc. I'm sure the history of how it's been passed from RAF to USAF like a a twink in jail has been posted before.
Here’s a very brief report of our visit.
A small area of the site:
A lot of the buildings towards the back of the site are in great condition:
I know it’s hard not to be homo-erotic when drawing up a resuscitation poster, but seriously?
I’m in love with corridors, I have a canvas of a Severalls corridor in my living room. This site had some beauties:
Spot the explorer…
The massive parade ground in the middle of the site had a bit of a Pripyat feel to it:
The second oddity of the day, (the first being the site being full of sheep…) was that we ran into a couple of models on a fashion shoot.:
Officers Mess Ballroom:
Sergeants Mess - love the wacky boarding up of the windows:
Compulsory group shot:
I’ve posted loads of serious pictures of the tanks before, so:
The water tower:
Beautiful view from the top over the fens:
Hope you enjoyed!
